LOOPShare Acquires ‘Scoot-E’ Brand and Partners with Raytroniks and Ray J for its Scooter Sharing Business

 

 

 

 

 

LOOPShare Ltd. (TSX-V: LOOP) a micro mobility and ride-sharing company focused on sustainable urban transportation, is pleased to announce that it has entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Raytroniks Corporation to acquire the ‘Scoot-E’ brand. In conjunction with the acquisition of the brand, Ray J, the principal of Raytroniks, has entered into a consulting agreement to become a key member of the LOOP team. Ray J is a successful tech-entrepreneur, TV personality and musician.

 

Upon closing of the Raytroniks transaction LOOP will receive several benefits including:

 

  • Acquisition of a recognized brand in the electric transportation industry.
  • Increased visibility in the global micro mobility and ride-sharing industry.
  • Access to expertise and vision of a successful tech-entrepreneur in Ray J.

 

“When I first met Ray J I immediately realized that his passion and experience in the electric scooter industry and market would create a significant positive dynamic to LOOPShare, its investors, and its immediate and longer-term prospects,” said Anwar Sukkarie, President and Chief Executive Officer of LOOPShare. “We are looking forward to working with Ray J as we prepare for the global rollout of our fun, safe and environmentally friendly scooter ride sharing service this year.”

 

Raytroniks was formed to offer a new wave of electronic transportation, providing an eco-friendly, efficient and convenient mode of transportation customized with the unique designs and features of the Scoot-E brand; a vision which directly aligns with LOOP’s core scooter sharing business model. High profile celebrities like Sean “Diddy” Combs, Justin Bieber, Chris Brown, Brandy Norwood, and Snoop Dogg have all been seen riding and enjoying their Scoot-E-Bikes. This venture with Ray J comes off the back of his successful $31 million-dollar partnership with Cowboy Wholesale to form Raycon Global, a successful consumer electronics brand

“I want to thank everyone that has supported the ‘Scoot-E’ bike and for all the hard work that my team has devoted to making the brand a success,” said Ray J, who will acquire a significant equity stake in the Company which will be his first public company venture. “I’m excited to join the LOOPShare team as an executive member. My goal, looking forward, is to revolutionize the e-transportation industry through enhanced technologies, strategic marketing and streamlined services”.

He will facilitate and promote the Company’s expansion of its products and services to new cities and markets in the United States and globally.
